Information Collection

Personal Information

"Personal Information" (also referred to as “Personal
Data” in some jurisdictions) is any information that can be used to
identify an individual or that we can link directly to an individual,
such as name, address, email address, telephone number or credit card
number, as applicable. Personal Information, in some jurisdictions,
can even include information that indirectly identifies a person –
such as a unique number assigned to a patient by a medical facility or
healthcare professional, even absent other identifying information.
Health and treatment information pertaining to an identified or
identifiable individual is a form of Personal Information that in this
policy we call Special Personal Information ("Special Personal
Information"). We will process any Special Personal Information
and Personal Information collected through the Websites in accordance
with applicable law and as explained in this Policy. If you do not
want to provide us this information, please do not utilize these
features of the Websites.

Examples of instances where we collect Personal Information,

forums;

ask us a question by contacting us at the information

apply for employment with us; or

are a customer and
provide information about your customer or patients.

The information we collect is typically related to the product or
service requested, such as name and contact details, the nature of the

job with Zimmer Biomet through our website, the information collected
will include your qualifications for the position, your education,
applicable licenses or certifications, prior job history, references,
and any other information that you choose to include about yourself.

We may be required by law to collect certain personal information
about you or as a consequence of any contractual relationship we have
with you. Failure to provide this information may prevent or delay the
fulfillment of these obligations.

Occasionally, Zimmer Biomet may invite users to participate in a
survey or poll, for example, to provide feedback on website content,
services, or products. Responses will be anonymous unless users choose
to provide contact details so that we can provide a user with
additional information regarding the survey.

Technical Information

When you visit the Websites, we may also collect certain technical
information relating to users, which your web browser automatically
sends whenever you visit a website on the Internet or which is
collected when you use a mobile application. Our servers automatically

Like many websites, we use "cookies," web beacons and
other technologies on our Websites to help us serve users better, and
to help us evaluate and improve the content or functions of our site.
A cookie is a unique numeric code that we transfer to your computer so
that we can keep track of your interests and/or preferences and, among
other things, recognize you as a return visitor to our Websites. Web
beacons are small pieces of code placed on our Websites that allow us
to obtain information about website usage.

Common uses for cookies include:

Identifying visitors who have signed into a protected website
to avoid users having to submit a user name and password for every
page;

Keeping track of visitors' preferences regarding the
content they would like to see and the format in which they would
like to view it so they don't need to resubmit the preferences every
time they visit the site;

Keeping track of which pages
visitors request to make improvements to site content and
navigation.

Engaging in analytics about how the Websites are
used.

Collecting information about visitors’ online
activities over time and across different websites when they use the
Websites.

If you prefer not to receive cookies from this Website set your
browser to refuse all cookies from this and other websites that you
may visit. This will provide you with more control over the acceptance
of cookies on your computer. However, it is possible that some
portions of the Websites will not function properly or may perform

Children’s Information

Zimmer Biomet does not knowingly collect, maintain, disclose or
otherwise process Personal Information from minors below the age of 16
in the country where the minor resides without the permission of such
minor’s parents or legal guardians. This does not affect medical
information about minors that a healthcare professional using one of
our Websites may provide in connection with our healthcare
professional-directed products or services Websites.

Combination of Data

We may combine any of the information we collect, whether Personal
Information or not, with Personal Information such as demographic
information (for example, age and gender) that we may obtain from
third parties. These third parties include healthcare professionals,
hospitals, medical scanning facilities or similar health care
providers or one of their representatives who may use our Websites for
patient-related products and services we make available to them in the
course of their or our provision of treatment.

Using and Sharing the Information We Collect

Zimmer Biomet uses the information we collect: to communicate with
users, to provide our products and services to users, to customize or
personalize content for users, to identify and authenticate users, to
improve our products and services and the content on our Websites, to
market to users, and for administrative purposes, system security,
product development, and research. We may share the information we
collect, including your Personal Information, among our affiliates,
subsidiaries, and related companies as well as with third parties that
assist us in providing the products or services that you requested or
improve our marketing or administration. This includes companies that
provide analytics to us about use of our Websites, so that we can
evaluate use of our Websites and continue to improve our products,
services and the content on our Websites. Because we operate as part
of a global business, the recipients referred to above may be located
outside the jurisdiction in which you are located (or in which we
provide the services).

To the extent that Personal Information and Special Personal
Information is transferred out of the country where a user or other
individual whose information is provided to us over the Websites
lives, such as to Zimmer Biomet companies in other countries,
including in the United States, there may be different standards that
apply to how your data may be used and protected. Zimmer Biomet has
put in place appropriate safeguards in accordance with applicable
legal requirements to ensure that data is adequately safeguarded and
protected irrespective of the country. This includes obtaining written
assurances from third parties given access to your data so as to
require them to adopt standards that ensure an equivalent level of
protection for data as that adopted by Zimmer Biomet. Should you wish
to know more about how Personal Information and Special Personal
Information is protected please contact privacy.emea@zimmerbiomet.com.

From time to time, we will provide aggregate statistics about our
customers (including their customers), sales, online traffic patterns
and related information to reputable third parties who help us improve
our business and services, but these statistics do not include any
personally identifying information. Anonymized or aggregated
information may also be shared with third parties for other purposes,
including the optimization of your web browsing experience and for
reports on industry or company trends.

We also may use or disclose information to third parties such as law
enforcement agencies and government authorities when we have a good
faith belief that it is necessary in order to protect the legal
rights, safety, and security of Zimmer Biomet, our affiliates, or our
business partners; to respond to and resolve claims or complaints; to
prevent fraud or for risk management purposes; and to comply with or
respond to law enforcement or legal process or a request for
cooperation by a government or other entity.

In the event that we sell, assign or transfer all or part of the
Zimmer Biomet business or its assets, we may transfer information,
including Personal Information, to the buyer. However, the buyer,
assignee, or transferee will be required to safeguard Personal
Information in a manner that is consistent with the requirements in
this Policy. In such situations, your continued use of the Website
signifies your agreement to be bound by the privacy policy and other
applicable terms of the subsequent owner or operator.

Legal Bases for Using Your Personal Information

There are different legal bases that we rely on to use Personal
Information, namely:

Performance of a Contract - The use of Personal Information
may be necessary to perform the contract that you have with us or to
take steps at your request prior to entering into a contract with
you. For example, where you work for us either as an employee or a
service provider or apply for a job with us your Personal
Information will be necessary in connection with your contract of
employment or services agreement. If you are a consumer or a user
of our services we will use your Personal Information to carry out
our obligations under the contract that we have with you. We
similarly process patient-related Personal Information from our
customers to perform our contracts with them.

Consent – We will rely on consent, which in some cases may be
implied, to use (i) technical information such as cookie data and
geolocation data as described in this Policy; and (ii) Personal
Information for certain marketing purposes. Where we would like to
use Special Personal Information like health information that we
collect from an individual, we will only do so with explicit consent
if required by law, unless we have an obligation under employment
law. You may withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at
the addresses at the end of this Policy. We may obtain certain
Personal Information and Special Personal Information about
individuals through healthcare professional users (including
hospitals, medical scanning facilities or similar health care
providers or one of their representatives) of our products and
services, in which case they are responsible for obtaining and
handling any required consents or for having another legitimate
basis for processing such information.

Legitimate interests – It is in our legitimate interests to
process Personal Information in order to improve our products,
services, and the content on our Websites, perform administrative
tasks, communicate with users, including the delivery of marketing
communications with users and patients, customize and personalize
content for users, identify and authenticate users, secure our
systems and information, conduct research, and develop new products.
It is also in our legitimate interests to protect the legal rights,
safety, and security of Zimmer Biomet, our affiliates, or our
business partners; to respond to and resolve claims or complaints;
to prevent fraud; and to manage risks associated with our business.
For more information about the balancing test that we carry out to
process your personal information to meet our legitimate interests,
please contact us at the details below.

Legal obligations – We may use Personal Information to comply
with legal obligations to which we are subject. For example, we may
disclose personal information for medical device regulatory
reporting requirements, or to law enforcement in accordance with
legal process.

such as newsfeeds, blogs, message boards or similar tools
(“interactive features”), the posts or comments you make may be public

policies or practices of third-party websites.

Safeguarding Information

Consistent with applicable laws and requirements, Zimmer Biomet has
put in place physical, electronic, and administrative safeguards to
protect Personal Information from loss, misuse, alteration, theft,
unauthorized access, or unauthorized disclosure, consistent with legal
obligations and industry practices. We evaluate these safeguards on
an ongoing basis to help minimize risks from new security threats as
they become known. However, as is the case with all websites, we
unfortunately are not able to guarantee security for data collected
through our Websites.

If you are providing any Special Personal Information or sensitive
personal information to us through our Websites, such as credit card
details, please be sure that the computer you are using to do so has
up-to-date anti-virus software in place, to minimize the risk of any
access to the information before it reaches us.

Your Rights Regarding Your Personal Information

Zimmer Biomet takes reasonable steps to ensure that Personal Data is
accurate and up-to-date for the purposes for which it was collected.
We encourage you to contact us to update or correct your information
